My family and I have just spent three nights at the Dairy and were made to feel very welcome by Kate, Ab and their lovely children. The Dairy was perfect for us and was really quirky with lots of exposed beams and a wood burning stove. The kitchen had everything you would need for a short break and longer and we appreciated the little touches such as the fresh eggs, milk and chocolate orange that had been left for us on arrival. We enjoyed making use of the outdoor space too. The Dairy is well situated for exploring beautiful Suffolk and the directions provided made it easy to find. Thanks for a lovely stay and we hope to return if we come back to Suffolk in the future.

Helen2015-07-25T00:00:00Z

On arrival we were welcomed by a spotlessly clean cottage beautifully prepared and ready for us. The dairy is charming: quirky, comfortable, tasteful and relaxing. It is the little touches that Kate provides which make it special. It is worth coming for the lampshade in the sitting room alone. It is spectacular. The chickens and cats outside are a constant source of entertainment. We were only there for 3 nights, but we could eat outside for two of them; it was warm enough - there is a choice of table and chairs in two locations. Kate and her family are a delight: warm, generous and sociable. We had a lovely time meeting them. We could not have hoped for nicer people. There is a baker and a butcher in the village, but best of all, the locals leave out their garden produce to sell. We bought some delicious things. Our children are pretty urban, and it was really good for them to have a different experience. We will definitely try and return to this cottage. I would recommend staying here without question.

Andrew2014-08-30T00:00:00Z

My friends, partner and I had a most enjoyable weekend at The Dairy. The rustic cottage has been beautifully renovated and stylishly decorated throughout, without losing any of its charm and character. Kate and Ab were perfect hosts... on call to provide us with local advice and warm hospitality but also allowing us the space and time to relax and unwind. The fresh free range eggs for breakfast were a real treat. Overall, the perfect rural retreat for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommended!

Wayne2014-09-28T00:00:00Z

Helpful and clear pre-trip info, responded quickly to queries. Property description accurate. Helpful, welcoming and generous hosts, gorgeous quaint property, beautifully done out, would highly recommend. Is well located in this beautiful part of Suffolk! Would definitely stay here again

Monica2016-06-06T00:00:00Z

The Dairy was great for our 2 night getaway without the kids. A good base to access the Suffolk coast with cosy rustic charm to come home to!

Suzanna2017-02-17T00:00:00Z

The Dairy was absolutely fantastic. Wonderful building, beautifully done out and Kate a great host. We and the girls loved it and hope to come and stay again.

Tim2014-05-06T00:00:00Z

Kate's place is so lovely. We were looking for a hideaway break from London and we got exactly that. The fire was fantastic and made the place very cosy. I love cooking and I had everything I needed in a very well equipped kitchen. Kate was very friendly and accommodating and made our stay even more enjoyable. Thanks Kate!

Ashleigh2015-02-22T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely stay in the Dairy. Everything was as described-very well equipped. The wood burner was the best feature that we definitely made the most of. Would certainly recommend to those looking for a lovely countryside chill out.

Marcel2015-08-07T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Foxglove Cottage in Fressingfield was just what we needed and exceeded our expectations. Tim greeted us warmly for a late Sunday arrival offering all information we needed and left complimentary Bakewell tarts and milk/tea/coffee which was a nice touch. The cottage was as welcoming as the pictures on the website and was equipped more than adequately with games, books and DVDs for your entertainment. We enjoyed the location as Fressingfield was a quiet village with a couple of good pubs offering a relaxing break with just over a half an hour drive to the Southwold coast. We enjoyed a run through the lanes, a country pub meal out, a day at the beach, a day mounting biking at Thetford Forest and a day in the cottage by the fire. Perfect half term.

Natalie2016-02-19T00:00:00Z

We very much enjoyed our stay at Foxglove Cottage - cosy and in a sweet little village. Tim made us feel welcome and kindly gave us a cake and some milk. We particularly appreciated use of the lovely garden. The cottage is located in a good spot to explore Suffolk. We made trips to Framlingham, Minsmere, Southwold and Lavenham.

Nicola2016-05-07T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely stay at Foxglove Cottage. Tim was very helpful in the lead up to our stay with clear directions, suggestions of places to eat and offering to have the fire lit for when we arrived. When we did arrive, Tim kindly showed us around the beautiful cottage and pointed out the things we needed to know. Another fantastic Airbnb find in the peaceful Suffolk countryside. Thanks Tim!

Carolyn2017-02-18T00:00:00Z

Thank you Tim for the warm welcome - everything I needed to make me feel at home straight away. The cottage has everything you need for a relaxing break in beautiful countryside with many thoughtful extras - the milk in the fridge and the cake on arrival were appreciated. The cottage was exactly as described and provided a comfortable base. Spent a lovely relaxing few days at Foxglove cottage. Fressingfield is a great place to stay with so many places to visit nearby and everyone I met was very friendly and welcoming - I would definitely love to come back.

The spacious accommodation lies across the moat from the house, set in a beautiful garden and surrounded by uninterrupted arable farmland.
It is a tranquil oasis with lots of wildlife ; hares, rabbits, kingfishers, deer, pheasants, moorhens and any number of garden birds. There's a large bed-sitting room, huge wet shower room. TV, Wifi and radio. Separate room with fridge, kettle, toaster, microwave and Nespresso machine but no cooking facilities.

Converted from a cow byre into exceptionally comfortable and spacious private accommodation, the building sits in 7 acres of tranquil gardens. The studio provides comfortable accommodation for two adults either in a king size bed or two singles, with dual aspect windows looking out over the garden and moat.
There's a large walk-in shower with plenty of hot water and heated towel rail in the en-suite bathroom.
In a separate room (not a kitchen!) between the bed-sitting room and shower room, there's a fridge-freezer, Nespresso coffee machine, kettle, microwave and toaster. We supply fresh milk and filtered water. We also supply bread, jam & marmalade, butter, fresh fruit, yoghurt and granola so you can have breakfast when you choose. There's TV, wifi, dab radio, plenty of books and some board games and jigsaw puzzles. Our house is just across the moat via one of two bridges.

Our location is in the middle of arable farmland and perfect for walking or cycling - with very few hills. The villages of Laxfield, Fressingfield and Stradbroke can also be reached by footpaths. The Fox and Goose restaurant at Fressingfield is a good target for a walk. Woodbridge, Southwold, Walberswick, Minsmere. Orford, Aldebrugh and Snape are all within a 45 minute drive and well worth the journey. Framlingham, Eye and Harleston are 15 minutes' drive away and have a wide range of cafes, restaurants and antique shops. You can enjoy the 'big skies' of Suffolk and on clear nights the stars are breathtaking. There are riding stables nearby and canoeing at Iken is a great experience.

We had a wonderful stay at Broadway Hall. Frances was lovely and very friendly. She made us feel welcome and even brought us Eccles cakes on arrival which were to die for! The accommodation was very comfortable and felt spacious for two, with a nice sitting area included within the bedroom. We enjoyed the peace and quiet - it felt like a country retreat which is what we were looking for. Great restaurants in the local area too, notably the Fox and Goose in Fressingfield and The King's Head (Low House) and Scrumptious Tea Room in Laxfield. And perfect for walking and cycling. All in all a great stay - thank you.

Frances and Nick were great friendly hosts and really set out to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The location is both peaceful and beautiful and an oasis of calm. I would really recommend this location for a getaway or short break.

The Garden Room is a converted annexe situated a few yards away from the main house with its own private access. Well equipped, including tea/coffee making facilities, TV, DVD, ensuite kingsize bed with sitting area. Double sofa bed if required. WIFI included.

The main house is a charming period property set in a large 2 acre mature garden. Guests are welcome to use the garden. The Garden room is a converted annexe a short distance from the main house. Very well equipped. In a very lovely peaceful rural location. The area is perfect for long walks or cycling.

We live in a quiet rural location with no close neighbours. Lots of lovely walks near by.

We had a lovely weekend. The garden room is clean, cosy and ideal for a family. And the breakfasts are great!

Emlyn2017-02-19T00:00:00Z

Debbie and Roger are great hosts and made us feel very welcome. The Garden Room is located at the back of the main house, which has beautiful surrounding gardens, all set in a very quiet, rural area. The room was clean and comfortable, a perfect base for us and our 3 year old daughter to explore Suffolk and the surrounding area. The breakfast was fantastic with plenty of choice and plenty of it. Debbie was kind enough to let our daughter help feed their dog and ponies, which she loved! We wouldn’t hesitate to return!

Aaron2017-04-17T00:00:00Z

The Garden Room was just what we wanted: a clean, comfortable space to share with our kids in a peaceful location, but one near to places worth visiting – you can reach Framlingham Castle, Sutton Hoo, Walberswick, Southwold and Aldeburgh, etc. in under an hour's drive from here. Debbie and Roger were perfect hosts: really welcoming and friendly, but didn't make us feel crowded. We enjoyed talking to them when we overlapped, and their teenage kids were fantastic with our small children. Along with the really genuine and open attitude of the host family, the outdoor space is what made our time at Foals Green: full of beautiful flowers and trees, and subdivided into different sections (one with a big trampoline that guests can use), it gave the kids plenty of space to let off steam, and us a lovely, calm spot to relax in. Roger also cooked us two excellent and very generous breakfasts, and made a particular effort to make sure our kids felt at home while they ate. The Garden Room is in a courtyard that sits behind the main house. An L-shaped space wrapped round a very nice bathroom (with a lovely deep bath and rainforest shower), the living area felt like a nicely arranged home-from-home: a comfy bed, TV, sofa (quickly converts to a bed for the kids) and tea-making facilities, along with a generous supply of biscuits and fruit. We were able to come and go as we wanted, which was really useful. The house feels remote, but is actually only a few minutes' drive from a number of villages, many of which have decent pubs that serve food. Foals Green makes an excellent base for a short break in a very pretty part of north Suffolk, especially for families travelling with smaller children.

Liam2015-08-29T00:00:00Z

The Garden Room was in a perfectly lovely setting: beautiful gardens, tranquil countryside, and an absolutely charming house. Our hosts Debbie and Roger and their children were very friendly and lovely and made us feel right at home. I would absolutely recommend this to families and families with children! May not be the most ideal for groups of friends - we were travelling with a visiting friend and I think even with a curtain on the bathroom door it was slightly weird not having complete privacy in the bathroom. Other than that it was absolutely perfect :) Thanks Debbie and Roger!

Marylis2015-08-24T00:00:00Z

Deborah and Roger were amazing hosts, and their garden rooms were a peaceful and homely place to get away to. We had a wonderful few days with all the comforts we could ask for, as well as delicious home-cooked breakfast every morning. The Griffiths are a generous and welcoming family and gave us lots of local advice about pubs, walks and towns to visit. We felt completely at home and would highly recommend staying here. Deborah also provided feather-free bedding and a travel cot for us, which we greatly appreciated. This was the best place we could have been for our first holiday as a little family! Thank you so much guys!!! Alice, Ben and maggie

Alice2014-07-23T00:00:00Z

The Garden Room at Foal's Grange was exactly as described on Airbnb - it provided a relaxing private space for us 3 adults, as well as a slap-up breakfast, and the beautiful, quiet gardens of Foal's Grange- which all added up to a refreshing short break. Foal's Grange is set in a very quiet, rural and beautiful area of North Suffolk. Debbie & Roger and their children were very friendly and welcoming- which helped to make our stay even more special. Thankyou!

decheal2015-07-21T00:00:00Z

Thanks Debbie, we had a great time. Deborah & Roger were wonderful hosts, they they helped us with all our questions about the region. The room is wonderfull and very well equipped. There was even a playroom for the kids to play, they wanted to stay there all day, they loved playing with Debbie and Roger's kids who showed them arround and really looked after them. Breakfast was rich and tasty even with all our strange vegetarian needs. In short - much recommended!

Oded2014-08-12T00:00:00Z

We were made to feel very welcome and the host family was charming. Quite a remote setting but very peaceful. Beds very comfortable and had a good nights sleep. Breakfast was great. The only downside was the lack of space. It is ideal for a couple but a bit of a squash for more and the lack of a door on the bathroom is not ideal. Overall though we really enjoyed our stay.

Our gorgeous pink thatch cottage is perfect to fulfill your English countryside adventure. Open fireplace, open views of the countryside and local footpath to Eye at bottom of the garden. Three apple trees and plenty of blackberries in the autumn.

Erin's place is just wonderful. Me and 3 friends had a great relaxing weekend here. The cottage has everything you need to make your stay comfortable- the rooms were clean and airy, the beds were comfortable. All the necessities were provided in the kitchen (NB- there is no microwave for those bringing food with them. This wasn't a problem for us as we used the oven to heat our food!). We especially loved the hammocks which were provided for the apple trees- a really nice addition to our stay. Another brilliant addition was the trampoline- so much fun! The area itself is really quiet and peaceful with lots of walking trails. The fair lights in the front and back gardens was a wonderful touch and made our evening strolls really memorable. Erin was accessible throughout our stay and quickly answered any Qs we sent her. We would definitely recommend her amazing cottage for all those looking for a nice chilled out weekend away. Thanks so much Erin!

Amazingly quaint cottage in the country-side with super-friendly neighbors. If you are looking for new, perfectly straight lines, this is not the place for you. But if you love old world charm with some modern touches, don't hesitate to book this place if you need accommodations in the area. Check out the air museum right down the road as well as the other sites in the area.

Very beautiful cottage! Cosy and welcoming and very dog friendly! Great location, only 15 min drive to nearest village but far enough away to have absolute peace and quiet, just the sound of the birds! Also very friendly neighbours! Would definitely stay again!

Lisa2016-09-05T00:00:00Z

A beautiful cottage right in a quiet countryside location. We have twin toddlers and the house was perfect for them- including a door to the stairs which was handy! Lovely walks nearby and we drove to Norwich in just under an hour. Erin was fantastic and provided us with everything we needed. Can thoroughly recommend.

Great location and cottage. I think my children (aged 3 and 5) liked this cottage the most of all the UK 'holiday houses' we have stayed in. They loved the big trampoline in the garden. We visited an old sweet shop with them in Diss and The Oaksmere in Eye which was amazing for food and the kids loved the pirate ship playground. Throughly recommend.

Had a fantatsic stay in the Cosy cart lodge in the lovely village of Laxfield, Suffolk. The accommodation was perfect, it is a cosy space and whilst situated next to the main residence is very private and peaceful. The place was very clean and finished to a high standard and the owners even left some eggs from their chickens and some homegrown tomatoes for us on arrival. The property is situated a 5 minute stroll from the village which has two pubs (recommend the 'Low House' for food!) and a shop. Their is ample walking in the area and it is situated a short drive from a number of landmarks and the lovely towns on the coast. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing stay in this beautiful part of the country.

We have stayed at the cartlodge a number of times now and I'm sure we will keep coming back. It is a perfect location for getting away from it all, yet near enough to the local shop and pub - and if you get in the car there's lots of great gastro pubs and sites of cultural intetest in easy distance. The cartlodge is very comfortable and finished to a high standard. The hosts have always been helpful and friendly. This place is really a great find.

Ellis2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

The cosy cart lodge was a delight to stay in. Small but perfect for a couple, and everything was finished to a high standard and works very well. Paul was great as well, very welcoming and responsive. Really nice location for a rural getaway too!

William2016-05-23T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful lodge in an idyllic location. Everything was immaculate and we had a wonderful couple of days. The cottage is very well positioned to explore the coast and countryside. Paul was welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended!

Ian and Hatty2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely peaceful stay at cosy cart lodge and it was just what we needed . On arrival there were fresh flowers and a few essentials included fresh eggs from Pauls chickens. The quality of the finish and facilities were excellent. We did struggle to find the entrance to cosy cart lodge but it was just a little further down the lane than expected. Just look for the wooden post on the right hand side of the lane. Laxfield is a beautiful, peaceful village and there are plenty of nice walks nearby.

You will be enchanted by the splendour of this beautiful victorian rectory, in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, close to the market towns of Framlingham, with its historic castle and only 25 minutes to Woodbridge with its ancient tide mill.
Excellent dining close by, simple home cooked pub food can be found at The Crown in Brundish and The Victoria in Earl Soham with its own micro brewery and for something more refined The Queen in Dennington .

You’ll love my place because of the beautiful countryside and peaceful surroundings. The lodge is light, airy and comfortable, it is also self contained. Fresh eggs, milk, tea, coffee and breakfast cereals are provided.
If you wish to bring your horse there are stables with an arena as well as turnout. Hacking is on very quiet roads and bridle ways. Rates are available on request.

There is a local pub 5 minutes walk from the property that serves pub food and good beer! You are close to Framlingham, a thriving market town with a castle and lots of restaurants. We are approximately 15miles from the coast, 35 miles from Norwich and 25 miles from Ipswich. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travellers.

The loft is set in a very quiet and rural area. You will need a car or similar to get around. The roads are perfect for cycling and there are several footpaths taking you through the countryside on foot.

Fantastic stay at Alison's over the August bank holiday weekend. The loft was exactly as described, immaculate and perfectly located. Such a treat to get fresh eggs and other bits for breakfast too!

The Lodge is set in a small courtyard
Chestnut Lodge is an ideal base for walkers, cyclists and bird watchers.
The village has two pubs and general store

Compact, secluded and peaceful

Quiet friendly village

We had a great stay at Chrissie's lodge. The accommodation was clean, peaceful and a great use of space. It was probably a little on the small side for 4 full size adults but had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Chrissie was a wonderful host, giving us plenty of thoughtful advice for the (very lovely) local area but leaving us to do our own thing too. Highly recommended and we hope to return!

Ingrid2016-08-28T00:00:00Z

Lovely little place. My girls thought the upstairs loft room made the place feel like being in a tree house! Lovely places to walk, both in the village and nearby which Chrissie told us about. Thanks for letting us stay. :-)

Lisa2016-08-14T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time at Chrissie's cottage. The room is housed in a magical little garden and is extremely comfortable. My children loved sleeping in the attic room and we all had a fantastic time.The village is lovely and has a great pub and a local shop. Laxfield is located close to Southwold, Walberswick and Framlington castle. We would definitely recommend Chestnut cottage.

Richard2016-08-23T00:00:00Z

Excellent position, lovely garden, high quality accommodation. Small but comfortable for two and the kitchen only has a microwave. Village museum well worth a visit.

Our self-contained, well equipped Annexe is converted from cattle rearing sheds & a horse engine room. It adjoins the 18th century timber framed barn where we live. We've worked on the conversion since 1995! The property sits in 5.5 acres of land, surrounded by farmland. We're 5 miles north of the historic town of Framlingham & 16 miles from Suffolk's Heritage Coast. It is peaceful, tranquil & relaxing. Suit bird watchers, walkers, cyclists, writers, painters or anyone wanting a quiet getaway.

"This is a lovely spot" is what the majority of our first time visitors say upon arrival! Our whole property comprises a big timber framed 18th century barn, converted cattle rearing sheds, stables & outbuildings. All nestling in 5.5 acres of gardens, ponds, a meadow & woods. Situated down the end of a long drive, our bungalow style, self-contained annexe is light & spacious - there is plenty of room for two people. There are no stairs, it is all at ground floor level. The hallway & well equipped kitchen/diner are open plan. From June 2017, the new utility room leads off from the hallway. It contains a sink, washing machine, drying rack, iron & board and the microwave oven. Bikes & outdoor equipment can be stored in here. The large sitting room, leading off the kitchen area, has double doors, which can be left open, or closed for a cosier feel. It contains TV, DVD, CD, Radio with speakers which also connect into the kitchen ceiling. The kitchen has sink, dishwasher, coffee machine, kettle, toaster, fridge, freezer, hob & oven with extractor over. The front faces south, with east & west aspects to the sides. The bedroom & bathroom are down a short corridor. There is oil-fired central heating & a woodburning stove in the sitting room. We have an endless supply of logs for guests to use. There is storage & hanging space, though some of our belongings, ornaments & family photos are dotted about. The bedroom door, through to the barn, is locked from both sides. Then there are two further rooms, with doors, between the annexe & the main barn, which connects in an 'L' shape. For guests' extra privacy, translucent vertical blinds have been added to the kitchen & bedroom French doors. Free WiFi internet access available.

We recommend you bring some cash as the nearest ATMs are in Framlingham & not all establishments accept small payments by card. The nearest shop is a small Co-op with Post Office 3 miles away in Laxfield. You can get cash from the PO during opening hours or, if you make a purchase, the Co-op will give cash back. There are several pubs that do good food within an 8 mile radius - the nearest is one mile up our road. There is a small swimming pool & gym 4 miles away in Stradbroke, which also has a Spar shop, baker & butcher. Our nearest main town is Framlingham 5 miles away. This has a larger Co-op, which sells the COOK range of frozen meals, plus most other shops you need, along with several interior design shops, pubs & restaurants. The famous Castle, Mere & Church are well worth looking around. There is also an interesting town trail to follow. The larger town of Diss is 13 miles away with Tesco, Morrisons, Aldi, Smiths, Boots & other high street shops. It also has a larger swimming pool & gym.
We are close to Sustrans National Cycle Route 1, which passes through Framlingham - bikes & outdoor equipment can be stored in the utility room.

Probably the best place I have ever stayed! A beautiful annex which was quiet and secluded and extremely comfortable. We felt very welcome and at home. You need a car to be able to access the local areas but the grounds of the annex are beautiful too. Particularly nice touch to have local bacon, sausages, homemade bread etc in the fridge waiting for us. My only regret is that we didn't stay for longer! We will definitely be returning.

Stunning property. So well equipped and beautifully presented. Comfortable and cosy. A real find!

Rhiannon 2017-03-18T00:00:00Z

The Annexe is a beautifully kept respite. Annie is a gracious host. The instructions are clearly written and their is plenty of information available about the surrounding area. People like Annie and places like the Annexe are what make Airbnb so great for travelers.

Bill2017-05-07T00:00:00Z

My boyfriend and I had a brilliant Easter weekend at Annie's place - it's all soooo nicely done up with lots of lovely little touches, including the delicious breakfast package complete with hot cross buns :) we spent an afternoon at the beach in Southwold and another strolling to a pub in Laxfield, thanks to Annie and Anthony's help showing us the route and kind offer to pick us up later if needed! The house is in a beautiful, peaceful setting and offered everything we needed for a weekend of relaxation. Thanks so much!

This place is a perfect get away. The surroundings are beautiful and remote. Turned up to a lit fire with the fridge stocked full of a fresh local breakfast produce ( even homemade bread). The barn is very spacious for 2 people with a huge lounge which feels incredible cosy! Great homely feel. Kitchen equipped with everything you would need and more. Annie was a perfect host with great communication and left us to a private stay. Have already recommended to friends and family as we are already planning our next return trip!

My place is close to family-friendly activities, countryside . You’ll love my place because of the outdoors space, the ambiance, the comfy bed peace and quiet. My place is good for couples, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets).
For animal lovers of all ages, guests are welcome to visit the alpaca, donkeys, geese, chickens, rabbits and ponies and have the opportunity to take part in their care, from egg-collecting to a spot of pony brushing.
Please note this is a working small holding

Situated in beautiful Suffolk countryside, The Lodge is a completely self-contained cottage which is part of a thatched, Grade II listed 16th Century Suffolk Farmhouse.
A beautifully converted, completely private section of a
stereotypical Suffolk cottage; charmingly furnished and with
wonderful views of the gardens and animals. The Lodge is
really warm, cosy and welcoming, and boasts unique features
typical of properties of this age. Stylish family bathroom with
wooden panelling, and with additional first floor WC and hand
basin. Cosy living room with original beams and electric log
burning stove. Oil-fired central heating throughout.

The King’s Head in Laxfield is an absolute must - steeped in history, you cannot help but sit and imagine the conversations and events that have taken place there over the last few hundred years. The good quality home cooked food and choice of beers and wines is an added bonus! There is a good selection of pubs and restaurants within a few miles but if you are a real food enthusiast, you must visit The Fox and Goose, Fressingfield, serving high quality cuisine and featured in the Michelin and Harden’s food guides.
You should be able to find all you need in the village co-op store and there is a choice of major supermarkets in Framlingham, or Saxmundham should also deliver online orders to The Lodge.
For more information on the area please look at our own online guides Visit Framlingham and Visit Southwold.
The market town of Framlingham is just 10 miles from The Lodge. Complete with a handful of shops, the famous Framlingham Castle, a magnificent 12th century fortress is well worth a visit, especially for families. Don’t forget the coast at Southwold, a great day out. One of Suffolk’s best known seaside towns, it is home to Adnams brewery and a fantastic pier; check out the Under the Pier Show.

A lovely cottage in a quiet rural area; a variety of historic towns close by and only 30 minutes away from the coast. Wendy is an amazing host, really helpful and very polite. Cannot wait to visit again!

Jetinder2017-03-20T00:00:00Z

We had such an amazing weekend. The kids got to feed the animals each morning & collect eggs, and the cottage comes with a huge garden, which they were free to play in. Wendy's cottage is lovely - incredibly clean and well stocked, and set in the most beautiful countryside and only 30 mins from the coast. Great local pubs too :) We would 100% recommend a stay here & will definitely be coming back.

Rebecca2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

Fantastic cottage and wonderful host. Wendy's cottage is beautifully presented throughout with many lovely character features. Lots of helpful touches such as guidebooks for the area. Wendy is very helpful and friendly and enjoyed showing us all of her animals - they're very friendly too! We will return soon.

Simon2017-05-08T00:00:00Z

Wendy was such a superb host, she went above and beyond to ensure my 3 daughters were happy, this was my first Airbnb experience and by far beat my expectations, there was everything to ensure our few days in Suffolk were relaxing and most enjoyable, I can't recommend Wendy's place highly enough, both the accommodation and gardens were fabulous, we certainly hope to be returning again in the near future

Rachel2017-04-08T00:00:00Z

Just got back from "The Lodge", We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this property, the cottage and surroundings are simply idyllic, very relaxing, the animals are clearly very well looked after and we enjoyed looking around the grounds, my daughter is animal mad and had a great time with Wendy feeding the animals this morning. The cottage is beautiful and the beds are very comfortable. Wendy, the host was such a lovely, friendly person and nothing was too much trouble, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you Wendy x

Fiona2017-04-16T00:00:00Z

What a great stay! Stayed for 3 nights with my 2 boys, 6&9, and they loved it here. They were able to help Wendy feed the animals every morning and put the birds away at night. They even got a ride on the farms quad bike! Wendy's dogs were really friendly, almost as friendly as Wendy who was the perfect host. The Cottage was clean and had everything you could want. It was also beautifully decorated and the photos on this site don't do it justice. It has its own large private garden. Felt very secluded and if you were coming to 'get away from it all' then it's a great spot. Good area with lots to do, if you can drag the kids off the farm! Thank you Wendy for making us feel at home, we'll be back!

One end of a 17th century, grade II listed farmhouse, providing peaceful and secluded accommodation, surrounded by fields, 1/3 mile from a country road.
Comfortably furnished, sittingroom with log fire and french doors onto secluded south facing lawned, and hedged garden, with pond on one side. BBQ and garden furniture.
Kitchen-dining room, bathroom with shower, Steep narrow stairs to first floor, one twin bedroom, one double.
Ideally situated for the Suffolk heritage coast.

The peace and quiet, the space and being surrounded by fields 1/3 mile from the road and the log fires are the aspects of Watsons Farm most relished by guests. There is a variety of bird life to watch.There have been little owls nesting in an owl box the last two years and in the Summer the swallows take over the stable yard. There are pair of Buzzards living nearby . Moorhens nest on the pond.

Fressingfield is fortunate in having the famous Fox and Goose Restaurant, also the Swan pub, and Mace, a very good village shop stocking local produce and open very long hours. All highly recommended by guests.
Southwold, Dunwich and Walberswick are 30 mins away. Southwold is a delightful old fashioned seaside town with beach huts,a lighthouse and award winning pier. At the harbour one can buy freshly caught fish. Walberswick on the other side of the estuary is a charming seaside village with dunes and a very good pub The Anchor. Dulwich has a steep shingle beach and an excellent pub, The Ship. Minsmere bird reserve is nearby.

The setting is idyllic, with your own river running through the back garden, and the banks were set off with daffodils, so pretty. Definitely a great retreat for hiding yourself away and enjoying the nature all around.

Marcia2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

A beautiful place comfortably & well furnished with a picturesque kitchen garden & a little garden to ourselves bound by a peaceful pond. The children & I were so happy here, Mary has made it all lovely & was very kind.
